I am cleaning up and cleaning out and finally had some time to check out a (Free, Yay!) CD with some lectures by Prof Veith who "is an ardent student of history and prophecy and has lectured to standing-room-only crowds around the world on his findings in archaeology, history, Bible prophecy, secret societies, and political intrigue."

It seems that archaeology fully supports creationism? Due to the format (video) I can only hope that someone can supply a handy tl;dw or a link to articles, blogs or similar? His website here: http://walterveith.com/index.html

That RationalWiki introduction made me bark with laughter, awesome! Also, mucho thanks for the critical review.

The 'professor' part puzzled me until I finally managed to get more info on him (Ahh, zoology. Tenure. A whole 'nuther topic). His skilfully written Wikipedia page contains this rather puzzling sentence: "After conflicts at the University of the Western Cape due to their unorthodox views, Walter Veith and Quincy Johnson left the department of zoology." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Veith

There you have it: the University of the Western Cape is a hotbed of irrational thinking!
